Audio Engineer | Los Angeles

Los Angeles, CA

Production / Contract / On-site

Sofar Sounds is a global community that connects artists and audiences through unique and intimate experiences. Sofar shows transform everyday spaces from living rooms and rooftops, to boutiques and museums into captivating venues for intimate gigs, creating inclusive experiences that bring people closer together. Founded in London in 2009, Sofar creates space where music and arts matter in 400 cities around the world. Our global team is distributed across the US and UK, and is backed by some of the best-known consumer industry investors (TCG, Battery Ventures, Union Square Ventures, Octopus and others). As an Audio Engineer at Sofar, you'll bring the magic on the sound desk at local shows throughout LA. Our shows are intimate and all about the music which makes the sound that much more important. Working with our local crew teams, you'll ensure that our Sofar shows sound incredible and artists sets go off without a hitch. We work in some pretty cool and unexpected places, so you may need to get creative depending on the venue! Please note: As part of this role, you are expected to work consistent shifts (2-4 per week depending on show volume) and bring your own gear to shows, including PA and mixer. The majority of our shows take place during the evenings on Thursday - Saturday.

What You'll Do:

  • Provide live sound reinforcement for Sofar shows
  • Work with the crew team & artists to prep and execute each show
  • Reference our concert portal to ensure you have the right gear for each unique artist setup, and keep future requirements up to date
  • Transport your own gear to and from the venue
  • Set up and load-in audio equipment at the beginning of the show
  • Break down and load out audio equipment at the end of the show
  • Maintain safe and appropriate audio levels for the venue and audience size
  • Consult on audio requirements for venues, partnerships and special shows

Who You Are:

  • You have experience with DIY audio setups, ideally at 50+ cap shows
  • You have your own gear and can arrange transportation to and from shows
  • You have a passion for live sound & creative problem solving especially in unique venues!
  • You're a strong communicator and comfortable working with creatives
  • You are able to troubleshoot effectively, especially in high-pressure situations
  • You must be able to move up to 75 lbs., with or without reasonable accommodation

$600 - $1,200 a month

If our mission and job opening resonate, you're encouraged to apply even if your experience doesn't precisely match the job description. We are committed to creating a culture of belonging and building a diverse team that reflects a variety of lived experiences, perspectives, and skills.
